Centre half James Smuk has five games left to score his annual goal for Wearside League Cup runners-up Redcar Athletic
Centre half James Smuk has five games left to score his annual goal for Wearside League Cup runners-up Redcar Athletic and will be looking to get into the opposition penalty area as often as he can, starting with tomorrow’s derby at Wolviston.
Smuk had to wait until the last home game of the season against Kirkbymoorside to net his first goal last term - then went on to score a second in the same game.
Central defensive partner Jamie Lee has had fewer problems finding the back of the net this season, grabbing his sixth in Easter Monday’s cup final defeat to Ashbrooke.
Lee pulled a goal back in the 73rd minute after Redcar had gone two down.
But the comeback proved short-lived as Mark Green got a third for the home side before Adam Preston made the scoreline more respectable with the last kick of the game.
Team captain Lance Skelton and defender Lee Blackburn were injured in the cup final reverse and their replacements Liam Wood and Craig Marsay are favourite to step in if they miss out.
Leaders Stockton Town play their penultimate home game as Seaton Carew visit Bishopton Road West.
A win against them and a further six points against Prudhoe and Wolviston should put Stockton past the finishing line.
